Can anyone tell me whether the member/customer pois are different to the public files?
I have installed everything, but am now beginning to suspect that I am getting multiple alerts and graphics for the same thing because I have installed files with duplicated information.

Hi Areb
Yes, as anyone would expect, they are different.

I compared one of the UK (Wales: Swansea - Gendros Crescent) GPS coordinates for speed cameras between the free [local] and member [complete] versions and they are different for the same location -- does this mean one may have been updated or there are 2 entries for the same location (GPS accuracy?)

Hi Pal,

No need to compare. Do not use free POIs. Delete all previously downloaded free POI files and use more accurate Members only POIs.

So you are saying the free ones have incorrect data then?

Martyn, our free POIs are as good as they are. Our data server occasionally updates our free (static) POI database.

You as a registered member can get the most updated file:
